Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We use a weighted review system which means that the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

NetherlandsCould be a little cleaner. The road to come here is in a very bad condition, with our 4x4 we barely could go through the puddles. Annoying noise when flushing down the toilet and no hot water.

SlovakiaOne thing to note-there is no hot water at all. I like the concept since its really hot in cabuya, youre body needs to cool off rather than get hottter , however after a long day of ocean swimming, a warm shower is nice.
I am so sad i missed this place when first booking a trip to Cabuya. Jenny is an amazing person and especially cook, she was very attentive and we chatted for a while. The room was very nice and comfortable, the place has a little outside gym which is amazing (feels very good to be doing something on vacation) I highly recommend this place since you feel safe, welcome and the place has spirit.

United KingdomCould have been a little cleaner but no biggie. You need a 4x4 and don't take the short cut to Santa Teresa unless you like off roading and have a serious 4x4!
Wonderful location in the jungle, loved the communal sitting areas, good food, lovely host, amazing for bird watching. We loved the setting. Wonderful smoothies too!

BelgiumHaving your own means of transpor in Cabuya is very welcome. The rooms are not very sound proof, so you easily hear the neighbours, dogs or cars. Minor detail, the stay was excellent.
The rooms and garden at Coyote rooms are very beautiful and well taken care off. Everything is clean and the owner is very helpfull.

Lovely place with a wonderful vibe. Jenny is an amazing host. She’s always available for her guests, going the extra mile for them. We had a rough driving day and she greeted us with an alcaline beverage and a wonderfully prepared room. Her husband is a birdwatcher -if you catch him he can explain a few things about the local fauna.

United KingdomA fantastic experience. Coyote Rooms is a beautiful place to stay, it’s outdoor area full of flowers and comfortable seating. The room we stayed in itself was very clean, with fresh towels everyday. The en-suite bathroom had a fresh water shower which was refreshing after a day in the sunshine. The kitchen is well-equipped and the location is brilliant. Cabuya is an authentic Costa-rican town, much less touristy than other locations in the pacific, whilst also being an easy cycle to montezuma and a hard but doable cycle to Santa Teresa (which makes for great day trips). Mountain bikes are available to rent from Jenny, the hotel owner. Jenny is just absolutely brilliant. So helpful and knowledgeable, she will go above and beyond to help her guests; reasonable price for laundry, booking shuttles and taxis, answering any questions and making delicious cocktails for a small fee, and so much more!! Could not recommend this hotel, or Cabuya, enough!

United StatesIncredible find. One of the best pound-for-pound stays we had over a three week span in Costa Rica and Mexico. The owner designed and built bungalows in the canopy of her surrounding property; they are both modern and deliberately kept ultra affordable. The bed was really comfortable and the patios were great for sharing a cocktail and some trail stories after a long day. Jenny was incredibly sweet, prepared her rooms on short notice, and even made us fresh squeezed grapefruit juice in the morning! She also pointed us in the direction of a fantastic soda for breakfast (the name escapes me). Muchas graçias, Jenny! Pro tip: inquire around about the road to Mal Pais (west) before attempting during rainy season. We made it through (in a Land Cruiser) but it was certainly sketchy.
